Dirty beats, hypnotizing slide, screaming harmonica riffs and plenty of fuzz: all of these will be served by this four-men band from Belgium. Boogie Beasts translate their passion for (hill country) blues into a most characteristic sound of their own, which has a touch of The Black Keys jamming with John Lee Hooker at a rave in the wee hours of the morning, or Morphine on a psychedelic trip with Little Walter, or even RL Burnside backed up by the young Rolling Stones at a juke joint-gig. So far, the bass-less (two guitars, harmonica, drums) band released three studio albums and played all venues in Beneluxa last three times. Here's the story behind their fourth album, Blues From Jupiter: In early 2021, venues and clubs were closed due to restrictions from the Covid pandemic. Belgian blues rock band Boogie Beasts were looking for alternatives to celebrate their ten-year anniversary. On March 6, they are live on Facebook from Studio Jupiter, where they recorded their second and third album but also owned by their sound engineer Koenraad Foesters. During the entire livestream, Boogie Beasts honored their roots and biggest influence: the blues. It resulted in an intense and energetic set of 11 covers that were received with great enthusiasm. The feedback was so enthusiastic that the idea arose to release this live session as an album.
